An AMA ("Ask Me Anything" thread, where you can get an answer from a celebrity or public figure on any kind of question) just unceremoniously popped up on Reddit. That's not a huge deal unless it's President Barack Obama.

WATCH | A New Trailer for Indie Hopeful Lifeless Planet
When indie dev David Board's PC and mobile game Lifeless Planet came to Kickstarter in late September, its goal was a modest $8,500. The project pitch site found him backers that would more than double that number.

GO GO GO | Get Your Free One-Month Hulu Plus Subscription
With Hulu's abhorrent film selection and nigh unnavigable interface, it's not something I'd recommend someone actually shell out hard-earned dollars for. Luckily, this month, you don't have to.

On the Wire | Epic Apple vs. Samsung Deathmatch Wraps Up
People wait in line to get inside for the Apple and Samsung trial during a lunch break at a federal courthouse in San Jose, Calif., Tuesday, Aug. 21, 2012. |

SAN JOSE, Calif. —
A lawyer for Apple said Tuesday that Samsung was having a "crisis of
design" after the launch of the iPhone, and executives with the South
Korean company were determined to illegally cash in on the success of
the revolutionary device.
Samsung's lawyer countered that the technology giant was simply and
legally giving consumers what they want: Smart phones with big screens.

On the Wire | What the New iPhone Will Look Like
By Farhad Manjoo
Slate.com
The new iPhone looks pretty much like the old iPhone. Sure, it's a bit
taller, allowing for a display that has one extra row of icons on the
Home screen. And instead of the glass that you find on the back of
today's iPhone, the new model's posterior is composed mainly of some
kind of metal — either stainless steel or aluminum that has been
polished and, in the case of the black version, treated by a chemical
process to turn it a dark, matte gray. (On the white model, the metal on
the back looks untreated.)
The other difference is the dock connector — instead of the inch-wide
plug that Apple has placed on almost every iPod, iPhone and iPad since
2003, the new iPhone will inaugurate a new, tiny plug that we'll
presumably find on all of Apple's other devices, too. Finally, and
strangely, the headphone jack is now on the bottom of the phone, rather
than the top.
But that's it.
